Didja see Jon Stewart taking on Fox News on the war on Christmas and Festivus and beer cans and Santa is white god damn it of course he is?
(Before I get to that though – how not to start a piece. Also how not to continue it and how not to end it. The sfgate piece on the subject:
Hide your kids, hide your wives because the War on Christmas is here and no ugly sweater or racial stereotype is safe.
Don’t do that. Don’t assume only men can read. Don’t assume you’re talking exclusively to men.)
Stewart shows a bit of the “discussion” between Bill “the Catholic League” Donohue and Shmuley Boteach and Dave Silverman. Stewart needs to have Dave on to talk about this nonsense. Stewart’s been a touch Fox Newsy about atheism himself in the past, so he needs to have Dave on.
Pull quote from Fox:
Just because it makes you feel uncomfortable, doesn’t mean it has to change.
Eloquent.
